So the other day I was mucking around on the guitar, when I suddenly came up with almost an entire song. Since it came so weirdly fast, I decided to challenge myself and try to make a song that was entirely recorded; all parts performed and recorded. No samples, no virtual instruments, no sequencing. Automation and effects plugins were allowed, and uh. This is what came out.

Anyway, it was kind of complicated to finish because at the end I just crammed all these layers and had no idea how to make them fit together, so the mix is a mess, and the lyrics are pretty sub par (light without dark can't be light? Seriously?), but this was supposed to be a really quick affair, so I wasn't gonna go all OCD on this one as usual (besides, that's just not healthy!). Still it was a lot of fun to make!

So yeah, I'd love to hear what you guys think, and how you think I could improve. I really value your input. Thanks for listening!

Lyrics:

Little sister hear me weep
This land was meant for you and me
To see through the seasons
Tell me a reason why
The landscape is to be shaped
After an image of a stage
To play out dark dreams
Scenes of broken fantasies

Light without dark can't be light
Days are not without the night
Darling, you were never cast aside
But we ran out of luck
Did we never share enough love...?
The moon is lonely among the stars

And as I wait for you
Spring is to fall as new is to new
Could we repair your crown?
Shed a light on your throne?
You never lost my heart
But can you fix a country's soul?

And time will bring you back to us
Will time absolve you or destroy you whole?
Congeal your pain
Freeze your blood
Light up the stains
So you can never let go

Light without dark can't be light
Days are not without the night
Darling, you were never cast aside
And I miss you so
I can't stop wondering where we went wrong
The silence in the halls
Is treading on a ground that you should walk
A thousand years is too many years too long...

The moon is coming up
